Solid-state technology

Solid-state technology refers to electronic devices built with solid materials, mainly semiconductors like silicon, rather than moving parts or liquids. These devices, such as solid-state drives (SSDs), transistors, and integrated circuits, use electrons flowing through these materials to store or process data. Solid-state electronics are faster, more reliable, have no mechanical parts, and consume less power compared to traditional technologies like hard drives or vacuum tubes. They are foundational to modern computing, enabling quick data access, durability, and compact designs across devices like laptops, smartphones, and servers.
